MENOPAUSE

I am 60 yrs old and haven't had a period in almost 12 yrs.  Apprximately 3 weeks ago I started having a bloody (very light) dark discharge.  It never goes away.  I have no other symptons.  I haven't been to the doctor in about 27 yrs.  What could be wrong?

It could be a number of things. You really should get checked. Good Luck!!

Hi Soulshine!

I very much agree with ontheedge050. Any post-menopausal bleeding should always be brought to a doctor's attention.

There's a good chance that it will turn out to be harmless, but for your own peace of mind, see a doctor.

Just reading your Forum, Have you gone to your Dr. yet? I'm 67 had Breast Cancer 23 years ago, started lightly spotting about 5 weeks ago, very light nothing heavy, went to my Dr. gave me a endomerteis (sp) test came out benign. also a vagianl Ultrasound, nothing showed up cancerous, but went in on Friday, and he wants to do a complete hysterectomy on April 1st, I go in, I' a little nervous, seems like I feel a very little cramping and back ache, could be nerves, let me know how you are doing!
